Can I just say first the information I have recieved from this web site has been amazing, I have found out things even the solicitor did not tell us, anyway at the moment my husband is being chased for a shortfall payment of #8000 for a property he owned with his first wife who has had the property repossed. We were totally unaware of the situation and this had been going on for two years, the building society (Halifax) had an address for my husband and never let him know the situation until we had a phone call from my husbands ex-wife asking us to store the childrens things ( and we ended up having the childrens who are still with us 13 months on and are staying with us). The Halifax have been able to find my husband now they are looking for the money, we have had letters from solicitors even asking for my husbands bank details and also the registration number of his car. We have just served a Data Sujbect Access Notice on the Halifax (paid by postal order and not a cheque) and are awaiting a reply. A rep. of the Halifax told us when we went to try and sort this out that the mortgage had been extended to 31 years, but when we queried this with the head office they denied it as well as other things, they have also been reluctant to show us total breakdowns of any invoices for the sale of the property which was sold for 26000 and has just gone back on the market and resold for 46000. We want answers to our questions and one way or another we will get them.(posted 8602 days ago)Fight on
